Megyn Kelly asked Trump Empire CEO Eric Trump if the non-answers to the lingering questions about Thomas Crooks concerns him. Eric Trump responds with a very pragmatic perspective, albeit clouded in frustration. WATCH:
.
Tucker Carlson ran a 30-minute review of Thomas Crooks earlier this evening. Video Below:

First
and the First shall be Last 😛
And the last shall be first! 😂
So you’re somehow special because you’re “first”?
Are you 13 years old?
Being first is a privilege and an honor. It’s not meant for everyone.
Doesn’t matter if you are first if you have nothing of importance to say. Sorry.
The roof was real slopey…
The slopey roof made it easier for the evidence to wash away
You will not know anything when the DS is involved and that’s proven over and over for decades.
Mar A Lago same thing with the unemployed roofing contractor who traveled globally recruiting for Ukraine on behalf of the Clowns In Action.
Common sense and gut instinct are accurate and strong.
Within hours of the assassination attempt, Crook’s “work” phone was geo-tracked to within a block of the fbi building in DC. I personally saw this data before it was removed from YouTube. It was only available for a few hours that I could find. ABSOLUTELY zero chance that patsy didn’t have a government handler. I call BS on both Patel and Bongino saying “we can’t jeopardize on ongoing criminal probe”. Seriously? Unless there is a case involving government personnel who were part of the assassination attempt, both Patel and Bongino are either stupid or scared.
Probably both.
I doubt they are stupid.
I quit listening to Dan a couple years ago. For several reasons but one was his anger. If, he has a soul the coverup will haunt him. You do not have to be a seasoned investigator to understand too many things fly in the face of normal. It isn’t sloppy. Government agencies have so much power and they have over my 80 plus years repeatedly given us the middle finger.
You can tell by looking at Bongino’s facial expressions and listening to his hesitation that he knows it all a lie.
They’ve probably threatened his family.
That’s no excuse. A pathetic excuse if true.
Thinking of the thousands who, for example, waded ashore on D-Day under machine gun fire, dying in the surf.
To have some pussy in a position of authority covering up monstrous crimes because “oh, they threatened my family!” What did he expect? Get it done or get out of the way, don’t run interference and enable them.
Both Patel and Bongino are so far over their heads and it so obvious. Weak and ineffectual leads to complicity. They have no business being in those positions. Little “girly-men” with big mouths that exceed their ability. Never should have been nominated even.
They should have been sweeping through the FBI with armed troops and dragging the corrupt junk out by their hair.
Or they could have just required everyone at FBI to take a test on the constitution which 95% would have flunked, cleared them out that way.
We had high hopes for cleaning up this mess, Trump has profound motive for doing it, but it looks like even that’s not enough and nothing will happen. Three more years of listening to bug-eyed Bongino with the quivering lip explain how awesome the FBI are (“please don’t hurt my family!”).
Well said – enough of the coverup. These two need to get a job at dunkin donuts and get out of our hair. It’s starting to become embarrassing.
Kash and Patel do not have the courage to be in the positions they are in – they should resign immediately. What is the point of having an FBI or DOJ if everyone is too afraid to take action?
Bingo on all counts, especially the last point which is how “they” can control anyone (other than the 100% psychopaths who can be eliminated).
That means anyone, all the way to the top. Catch my drift?
Everything is theater now, as part of the managed decline underway.
It’s Saturday so it’s time to roll out the usual…”FIRE BLONDI, FIRE KASH, and FIRE BONGINO” crowd is back because those three haven’t done anything.
It is similar to the Democrats “Affordability” issue. “Why hasn’t Trump lowered the price on everything and simultaneously not giving everyone a 20% raise for not going to work.”
If prices came down on everything we would be in a Depression.
“There is no “f” in chocolate” if you remember that joke.
Really? Please tell us exactly what those three have done – we’ll wait. Tulsi has already worked circles around them.
Let’s say Trump has proof that the assassination attempt was orchestrated by the FBI and the Dems. Why would he make that public instead of using it as leverage? Same with J6.
If you reveal everything, you lose all your leverage. Also, the enemy has nothing to lose and it might get very violent. Uncontrollably violent.
Some crimes require punishment to discourage others tempted to commit crimes.
Because using evidence of a felony for leverage is extortion. A crime so prevalent in Washington, that it’s almost ceased to be known as a crime.
Although I doubt it, it’s possible that they want to wait until shortly before the election.
Clowns in Action 🤣🤣
What a great description 😂
Patel probably called Eric for mercy.
Well, didn’t sundance say that the three stooges were nothing more than ‘information managers’?
Citing statistics in this context is a classic information manager tactic. No context. No story-telling.
But did the FBI do anything with all that “collected” data?
In my opinion, it’s pretty damn pathetic when a son has to publicly call out his frustration with an incredibly important investigation into the assassination attempts on his fathers life, and then to see that lead investigator respond on social media rather than in a personal briefing.
WTF? Why not just write updates on the bathroom wall?
It tells me how much less the common American would be treated in a similar situation.
Especially when that father is a former President of the United States.
Seems like Tucker’s investigation revealed far more than theirs. Or they just didn’t want to show the public what they have.
Bad look either way.
Tuckers just rolling out the next chapter as directed by his employers in intel. I wouldn’t trust those social media posts for a minute.
Well it’s a heck of a lot more than what the government is putting out. We never hear anything about the attempted assassination. Crooks did it – end of story. Just another Lee Harvey Oswald ….
Citizen journalists have provided sufficient evidence for successful prosecutions for, well, at least 20 years.
And yet the respective AGs, DOJ, never seem to take it and run with it to Grand Juries. Think about it.
I THINK KASH IS FROM THE GENERATION THAT GREW UP WITH “PARTICIPATION AWARDS” :
Participation awards, such as trophies, medals, or certificates, are given to individuals to recognize their involvement in an activity, event, or competition, regardless of performance or ranking. They are commonly used in youth sports to encourage continued participation, build self-esteem, and teach teamwork and social skills. While proponents argue they boost confidence and value commitment, critics suggest they devalue achievement, can lead to a sense of entitlement, and may diminish the incentive to succeed
If your employees lie to you then you don’t know the truth.
If your employees are incompetent investigators then you don’t know the truth.
What Eric Trump thinks of Ka$h and BonJovi as human beings is irrelevant.
But “what is truth?”
And focusing on people rather than substantive issues is a classical diversionary tactic, ad hominem etc.
Reminds one of the Inspector Closeau movies.
The Tucker segment is “enlightening”.
Forest for the trees Inspecter, forest for the trees.
While I’ve recently cancelled my subscription to TCN for his over the top antisemitism, I did watch his review on Crooks with what remains of my subscription. His thorough questioning of the actions taken by both the previous and current administrations, exposes many unanswered anomalies. Eric Trump and the President himself have a right to have those indiscrepancies addressed even if not made public. Then again, why hide from the American public?
Oh yes, Cheap Trick… I imagine you’re one of those who thinks our landing on the moon was faked more than 50 years ago. Yeah, Cheap Trick, indeed.
There is no antisemitism. Since you lie from the outset, we can only assume your tribe and disposition as well.
Ah! You solved it: there us no history. Riiiight.
have you read anything about what Gus Grissoms wife said right after they burned him up?
Actual quotes from Betty Grissom (examples):
Tucker appears to be controlled opposition.
Note that no one can do anything about the egregious wrongs apparently associated with his exposés.
One of the hallmarks of modern tyrannical governments has been forcing their citizens to see the government wrongdoing and lies and the fact that the citizens cannot do a thing about it. Psyop, breaking down morale. See Solzhenitsyn,
“We know they are lying, they know they are lying, they know we know they are lying, we know they know we know they are lying, but they are still lying.”
Indeed. He’s controlled opposition just like Ian and Candace. They’re replacing AJ. But Tucker makes it clear that he supports Jews and is anti Zionist
Speaking of Solzhenitsyn, I’m surprised no one has brought up his “200 Years Together”.
Tucker simply stated a pertinent question – are we America First or Israel first? No one should be labeled “antisemitic” because they want their own country to be first – as it should be.
I’ll answer the question on his ear healing. The ear is mostly cartilage. Small capillaries take blood supply to the ear. The initial injury clots within an hour. Blood flow returns. If you will enlarge and look closely, He still to this day has a slight ‘Notch’ missing at the tip of his ear. Ear wounds are very fast healing. His injury is very visible to anyone who wants to look closely. That’s a short synopsis. ~RETIRED ER NURSE
Ad rem; since the post I was answering to has been taken down, please remove my answer if need be. Thank 😊 you, too late for me to delate.
I vote to leave your post in place. It’s a good answer to the question I’ve seen asked by too many doubters, though not necessarily in CTH comments. So many on X and other social media have questioned the reality of President Trumps injury versus being staged to boost support via sympathy.
There’s a significant amount of cynicism around politicians which is too often deserved but it’s obvious that many people still don’t understand that fakery and being disingenuous is Not what makes President Trump tick.
I agree GB…
Hope Diceanna doesn’t mind…
😎
Working the graveyard shift? 😉
But thanks Ad_rem, and I hope your weekend is either very peaceful or wildly joyful!
I worked the graveyard shift for so many years I’m now a chronic insomniac, and I’ve been retired for over a decade.
I totally get it.
Wife and I’ve been retired 10 years and my sleep schedule has become crazy irregular. My wife too. Insomnia at night then 4+ hour naps next day.
😄
Getting old is a blessing but it does come with challenges. Vv
Spend 2 winters and 1 summer in AK to reset the pineal gland…
I guess I’ll tack this on below having never seen the original question but having had my ear almost removed by slipping and falling while walking thru the kitchen (table) when I was a kid.
Cartilage will not regrow, any notches that he might have would be plastic reconstruction or it could look perfect depends on the skill of the plastic surgeon. I still have a piece of plastic in my ear and I got the cheap care option I’m sure cause it’s definitely not perfect.
The ear was stitched back on tho I never saw how much it dangled off my head after the incident nor were pictures prevalent at the time. I do believe only 1 perhaps 2 people ever saw(neighbors) the ear before they took me to the hospital, mom might have at the hospital or just there to give consent to sew me up. LOL
Plastic surgeon to reconstruct ear was weeks later.
Yep. Cartiledge doesn’t grow back. I’ve not seen a clear photo of PDJT’s right ear so I just assumed he got a high quality patch up.
But it sounds like you had a far more traumatic actual injury. So reading your post it sounds like you came through fine.
So tipping my glass to your full recovery…. .’ears to you, mate.
😎
There are hundreds, if not thousands, of persons in the DS that would support this op so that Donald Trump could have sympathy and be elected president, /s
🙄
Yes you can see a dot of scar where he was nicked.
There is an international criminal cabal that launders money through Ukraine. A new president Trump was a threat to that operation.
Crooks is a misdirection.
From audio analysis of the shots, including inaudible suppressed subsonic shots that you couldn’t hear but that show up visually in ALL the recordings, as well as 3D modeling of ALL the shot trajectories, I believe there were two, possibly three shooters. Crooks was not one of them, and the body on the roof was not Crooks. That’s why they cremated the body so quickly and hosed down all DNA evidence from the roof the next day, to destroy all the non-Crooks DNA.
My guess is a group caught wind of Crooks’ violent online comments and set him up as their patsy. Then afterwards they claimed he was a lone shooter. They stall and stonewall and lie about knowing anything about him in order to keep attention focused on him. While we clamor for info on Crooks, the team that pulled it off is long gone and the trail impossible to follow.
My guess is, they are all back in Ukraine. Look for it. There is a Ukraine connection to all of them.
Oh, and by the way, anyone who was following the right citizen journalists back in summer 2020 regarding Butler knew in August 2020 who Crooks trained with at the range, knew his name, his associates, his family, and still want to know: where is the white van?
Summer 2024 and August 2024. duh
The second wannabe assassin, Ryan Routh, had Ukraine ties as well. Or was that a diversion?
I do not believe it was a diversion, but the trail leads THROUGH Ukraine, not TO Ukraine. They or others close to them were recruiting snipers to send to Ukraine. Who were they working for? There are also both domestic and international antifa connections to Crooks. Who do THEY hire out to? Lone “crazy kid” cover story is laughable. Oh, and you don’t have to follow the Butler trail too far before it crashes head-on into JFK. There is a whole other world at the bottom of the rabbit hole. Sometimes we get a glimpse of it.
Some folks want to abolish the agency that must not be named. Me, I am thankful for the people willing to go down and LIVE in that rabbit hole to advance Amedrican interests. We just have to make sure they don’t go native. Oh, and make sure they aren’t crazy caterpillars in the first place. Screen out the “make the world a better place” wackos, and send only those who are America First. There’s a difference.
Excellent post. I’d add BlackRock to the mix. Ties to both Crooks, and Ukraine.
A few key points about Crooks’ autopsy:
He died in Butler County, yet the autopsy was performed in Allegheny County.
His body was left in the July sun for over 12 hours, on a hot metal roof. Tissue and body fluids degrade rapidly in heat.
His tox screen was rudimentary, at best. Bile samples, which can retain drug traces for months, were taken, but the spaces for their results were left blank. Ditto for hair samples. No screen for SSRIs or other psych pharma. If you don’t request a comprehensive tox screen, you won’t get one.
The coroner noted bullet fragments in Crooks’ shoulder, but didn’t even bother to dig them out, let alone send them for ballistics testing. So the weapon used (more importantly, whose weapon used) is undetermined.
Crooks was cremated within days of death. Reminiscent of Osama bin Laden’s oh-so-respectful “burial at sea”.
Nothing to see here!
Right.
https://americanlibertyreport.substack.com/p/blank-burned-buried-what-they-didnt
Such a coincidence that Crooks trained at the same range (since August 2023) as DHS:
https://nypost.com/2024/08/12/us-news/trump-shooter-thomas-crooks-trained-at-same-gun-range-used-by-dhs/
And to your point on Ukraine:
Remember that BlackRock ad from 2022, featuring Crooks?
https://nypost.com/2024/07/15/us-news/blackrock-pulls-ad-that-featured-trump-shooter-thomas-matthew-crooks/
Q: what else did BlackRock do in 2022, specifically in November?
A: BlackRock CEO Larry Fink signed a memorandum of understanding with Zelenskyy to coordinate “the efforts of all potential
investors in the reconstruction of Ukraine”.
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/12/28/zelenskyy-blackrock-ceo-fink-agree-to-coordinate-ukraine-investment.html
Another coincidence:
The building Crooks shot from, deemed “too steep to climb” by SS Chief Cheatle, is owned by AGR, American Glass Research, which is partially owned by…. Blackrock. It’s managed by former execs at Pfizer:
https://slaynews.com/news/building-trump-shooter-owned-blackrock-managed-ex-pfizer-executives/
One final point, that Eric Trump as CEO must be aware of. The day before the attempted Trump assassination, trade volume in his company, JJT, spiked 800%. Specifically 15 million short calls in the week before the hit.
https://slaynews.com/news/trade-volume-spiked-800-stock-trumps-company-day-assassination-attempt/
Edit: his company, DJT.
psyop and patsy
Then whose body do you suppose it was if not Crooks?
Makes more sense if they were making Crooks their patsy then they would have killed him after they were done using the useful idiot.
“They wanted us in jail, they wanted us dead…”
The sad thing is, if they don’t handle those that perpetrated this, from Weismann all the way up to and including obama, in an appropriate, legal manner and remove them from the playing field, they will eventually be put in jail.
Or worse.
Guaranteed!
Word in Western PA is the FBI visited Crooks home several times before the Butler rally.
Let’s see, if you won’t say anything about what country the calls came from we’ll get rid of that compromising photo. Deal? Whomever has the most dirt wins!
He is backtracking.
He knows more than he says.
Propping up Patel is unserious.
Answer Tucker’s allegation – which are all fair questions.
He won’t.
Because they will not let him.
JFK part 2.
Lie to the public, hide the evidence, change the story, leak falsehoods to the press, ignore the laws, delay, delay, delay, and finally destroy the evidence.
Does any of this sound at all familiar? It should.
Good interview. But if Megyn would’ve sneezed he dress probably would have fallen down.
why wear that dress on camera?
She’s 54 and insecure about her age. Skews her judgement.
Because it’s MeAgain.
She had no choice, due to her tight schedule. No time to change between the interview and senior prom.
It was so tacky.
Interesting that Tucker has access to unpublished information. Still connected to the CIA?? I wonder.
I can only listen to him for so long. I think I drifted off at the halfway point. It’s his voice. I question his connections too.
No you don’t. You are just trying to divide.
Anyone who attacks the messenger is not a good faith actor, therefore neither are you.
These unanswered questions by an unmoored FBI and DOJ could wreck what’s left of The Republic sooner than later.
What bothers me to no end is how afraid this Administration seems to be to actually take on the Deep State Death Cult. It doesn’t look good for any of us in the short or long runs.
Eric is not built for regurgitating scripted nonsense.
+1 It’s a valuable feature to have. He shows remarkable restraint sometimes, amazing.
Another unforced error by the FBI. This blob of bullshit doesn’t care who the director is, it just keeps rolling along. De-charter, rebrand, re-start.
Megyn’s outfit leaves me baffled.
No me..
I hesitate to watch Carlson’s video because he has veered way off course in the last few months, in my opinion. To anyone who had watched it, is it worth the effort?
Everything about the Butler situation screams, “Setup!” to me. Frankly, I think obscuring information about the shooter is a red herring to keep people from focusing on who was really behind the effort and who was responsible for the jaw-dropping lapses in security.
Joe Rogan recently asked one of his guests whether he thought Covid was a psyop, and the guest replied that the virus wasn’t the psyop, the reaction to the virus was. I think that’s the case here. If the plot succeeds, the Biden/Harris FBI will have plenty of time to lose/destroy evidence, “disappear” witnesses, etc. Since it failed, the apparatus had to move quicker, with the same goal – obscure the trail and distract everyone with the mysterious shooter. Same with the J6 pipe bomber. They only had to delay/obscure the investigation until Potato was inaugurated and then the FBI could relax their “investigation.”
He has done none of the things you claim.
Do you really think the lies are going to work this time? We’re listening to him, we’re noticiing.
Your tribe is F-cked, with a capital F.
A dose of Dad: Your responses on this thread remind me of a school hall monitor, controlling in essence. I rarely comment but have followed this website for many years and find it enlightening in the search for truth, both in Sundance’s presentation of materials and in the many intelligent comments brought forth. It would help if you would take the time to come up with your own ideas, perhaps with receipts, and present them, so we could all appreciate your point of view. Dad off.
Have a great day!
Yes, it’s worth the “effort” to watch it. I’ve not kept up with Carlson and his videos in the last several months, but this one is time well spent.
It is an excellent podcast. Would that our FBI would search out info as Tucker has done … I don’t believe what you said about his voice – makes no sense whatsoever.
I don’t think Eric would create division within the ranks of his father’s administration by openly chastising Kash and Dan. But, if not for him being PDJT’s son, his comments about Kash and Dan felt eerily similar to these:
These sound like quotes before Mr. Muellar was”hired”. I wonder if their respective opinions changed after Mr. Muellar’s hazy, incoherent, lost looking testimony?
I hate these embedded videos from YouTube. You click on the d*** thing.And it says you have to sign in to prove you’re not a bot. But if you sign in you don’t have access to the actual link that Sundance posted.
I have that problem with the Brave Browser, but with MS Edge, you can setup an exception and watch YouTube without the annoying “sign in to confirm your age” messages.
I hate Google and therefore don’t have an account, but manage to get around that fact. If I need an app for my phone, I can use apkpure.com and download them from there.
JMQ, try clicking on the title at the top of the video frame instead of the arrow in the red box. I’m using Firefox. For me, the video opens in a new tab when I click on the title. Maybe that will work for you too?
Best, A
Rumble…..BX 5 part series on the acceleration movement and online radicalization by these violent groups and their ties to intelligence assets. Worth your time. Tucker is obviously pointing towards this in his video. It’s worse than you think. The series will give you a whole new understanding of who and how these patsies are created.
Kash, Dan, and Pam great guys. All the horrible stuff Eric mentioned and not One Single Arrest.
Lawfare, Judgefare, J6, Russia Russia, Ukraine Phone Call.
https://tuckercarlson.com/who-is-thomas-crooks
Tucker has a few questions as well. Specially some for the medicated Kash and Dan “Epstien killed himself” duo.
Megan doesn’t leave much left to your imagination.
I was thinking the same thing. Why o why don’t these women dress like a professional person if the would like to be treated as a professional?
We have FOX “News” and michelle obama to thank for the normalization of tasteless and inappropriate wardrobe choices and the apparently endless scuzzy fashion trend.
Cleavage-revealing cocktail dresses and sleeveless casual wear was introduced and replaced appropriate business and on-air attire as part of the FOX brand.
The obama woman took it to the White House, flaunted and mainstreamed it.
It’s disgusting.
Me_agin’s manner of dress is not on my things to concern myself list.
It’s hard to ignore when so blatant.
Think of her as an attempted insult and choose not to accept?
😉
What’s strange is Trump acts like this isn’t a big deal. It’s refreshing to see Eric say something bc I was beginning to think no one gave a damn.
Also, I’d be skeptical of the new data coming out about crooks’ social media posts – they are highly suspect and are incongruent with what his friends, teachers and employer have said about him.
If they are false, then there has been an operation going on for 7 plus years.
“Two open prosecutions…….”
So we’re prosecuting a dead and cremated shooter……..????
Who are we prosecuting……????
Hasn’t Putin explained who exactly is running the USA?
Yes, he did.
The point was that Eric has a vested interested in obtaining a correct and complete understanding of what happened. Questions remain, who was Thomas Crooks working for/with for example? The typical Oswald acted alone farce (along with the periodic unlikely suicides of highly visible individuals associated with politics) that the government’s been selling since Kennedy no longer rents space in many American’s consciousness. Eric wants to know the truth and so do many American voters.

https://americanlibertyreport.substack.com/p/blank-burned-buried-what-they-didnt
I’ve always ben interested in Biden’s remarks shortly before Butler that Trump was about to face something he can’t overcome – or words to that effect. I’ve tried to find this online recently but cannot.
I also found it highly interesting when a commenter here shortly before Butler said they are friends with a SS agent and the SS people guarding Trump were highly upset because they were removed and replaced with less experienced agents.
Agreed. And I have heard at least twice that CNN’s cameras were there and reportedly when they never covered many of his rallies in the past. Weren’t they also there the morning P. Navarro was put in shackles?
I have also read that people tipped off CNN that something big was going to happen at Butler and they should have one of their people there to record it.
It’s always good to see Sundance’s work featured on widely read aggregates like The Liberty Daily.
Haven’t watched it yet, I do believe that people can be right about some things and not so right about others. However, Tucker’s playing footsie with the likes of Nick Fuentes and Darryl Cooper does decrease his overall credibility.
You feel it too? Doesnt make sense does it? Things just dont add up. Thats your gut trying to tell you something……You dont need to know all the details. You simply need to Trust nothing except your gut, Not even Eric Trump, especially because hes being interviewed by Megyn Kelly (a.k.a Con Inc).
Amazing how Bongino did a TRUST YOUR GUT ABOUT-FACE after getting the FBI job and now calls us out asking the same questions:
Fitting how Never Trumper Chip Row would be asking the question:
Where are the interviews w his family?
Dir Wray’s FBI are the guys who allowed Crooks unmolested access to the rally, had him killed, had the scene kleaned up and had the body kreamated. Butler, PA was a Biden administration assassination attempt on Trump, that’s how bad TDS can be for the left.
Politically, there is no justice anywhere on the planet, everything is covered up by institutions of government.
I read today that Kash Patel stated that Thomas Crooks acted alone. I can’t imagine that ANYONE believes that. Credibility of anyone stating or supporting that statement is destroyed immediately.
Let’s assume he did act alone. Let’s ask the better question: Why was he IGNORED and ASSISTED by so many in law enforcement and on protective details? For so many to be “not doing their job” as it relates to this guy while at the same time doing all other aspects of their jobs faithfully as far as we know?
Maybe he did act alone. But he wasn’t prevented from acting by a GREAT many people.
